The first time I laid my eyes on a bunch of Hydrangeas, I knew I just had to have them in my garden. Actually, I didn’t know that it was a Hydrangea because the assistant at the nursery told me that the plant is called Milflores. I guess some plants are called differently here in the Philippines. When I first saw those beautiful Hydrangeas, I immediately thought of a perfect spot in my garden for them.
The photo below shows that sweet spot. You won’t be able to see the flowers yet as they were in their early stages of budding when I took the photo.

A few weeks later, the flowers bloomed. Notice the pale blue colour, with a touch of yellow. Something magical is going to happen there in a few weeks’ time.
Looking good!
A few days later, the buds bloomed even further. It’s starting to look really good.

And then this morning when I went outside (which is what I do right after getting out of bed), I saw my Hydrangea in all its glory.

It feels wonderful to be able to have this beauty in my garden. Just having something nice to look at is very relaxing.
